Watching last episode of “The First”, staring Sean Penn. Its more drama revolving around the lives of the astronauts (before leaving the Earth to travel to Mars) than Sci-Fi, at least this first season is. It’ll be interesting to see what happens next season. For a long time, I didn’t like Mr. Penn, but with Mystic […]

Mom’s birthday, dad passing away 4 years ago
My mom would have been 94 today. Thinking of you today, Mom. My dad passed away four years ago, last week. Forgot to mention it. Thinking about you, Dad. I wish I could have been a better son than I was. Both of you help me become the person I am today, and for that, […]
My thoughts on President Obama vs. President Trump
I wrote this Blog post on Saturday morning. I’m posting it a second time now just in case it was lost in your feed over the weekend, etc. Two other things: first, it’s just another post of mine on the U. S. presidency, and secondly, it’s a bit on the long side (to say the […]

Trump – call to action – invoke the 25th amendment
To be frank with my blogging audience, when President Obama was in office, at the time I didn’t think he was doing such a “great” job. I didn’t pay much attention to what he was or wasn’t doing. While he was in office, I just thought of him as an average, “pretty good” president. I […]
Mike Rowe – comment on Bob Woodward’s latest book
An hour or two ago, I read the following words by well known TV advertising spokesperson Mike Rowe, regarding the book just published by Bob Woodward: “…’Fear’, a rather depressing tome designed to scare and divide the country even further than it already is.” ==== I shake my head, since I guess I’m so naive […]
TV watching – French show – subtitles, etc.
So, I just started watching a French espionage tv series a few minutes ago, it’s (obviously) in French, with English subtitles. After a few mins of watching, I reach for the remote to turn up the volume. Not sure why, since I don’t speak any French. 😱🙄😉🤓
